2001 Rayas Pignan, Chateauneuf-du-Pape Reserve 1x75cl

Vinous – 91

Medium red. Exotic aromas of strawberry, gingerbread, orange peel, dried flowers and leather. Juicy, spicy and exotic, with enticing peppery lift. An elegant, tangy Chateauneuf with a silky texture and lovely inner-mouth energy. Finishes with very fine tannins. [Stephen Tanzer, 01/01/2004]
